This book was released on 2015-05-27 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract The current study aims at exploring the depiction of a pure woman in Thomas Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles. It also provides a brief commentary on Hardy's quality of writing, contributions and reputation and some related matters. In this novel, Thomas Hardy depicts Angel's obsession with purity may taken as a uniquely important determinant of Tess's fate. It is not going too far to say that without it there would have been no tragedy, especially of a 'pure' woman. The conflict of Angel's image of woman with real woman Tess becomes the turning point in the novel. The characterization of Angel is sufficiently plausible, in spite of a certain flatness, to make his attitude seem natural both to him and to the mental landscape of the novel.

Book excerpt: One of the most notable novels by Thomas Hardy. Initially refused publication when he first presented his finished masterpiece, a book that received mixed reviews when it first appeared. The Book challenged the sexual mores of Hardy's day and was sympathetic on the portrayal of a "fallen woman". Considered to be an important work of English literature, with the original manuscript on display at the British Library, that shows that it was originally titled "Daughter of the d'Urbervilles."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Hardy's 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' is a poignant and tragic tale of a young woman named Tess Durbeyfield, whose life is marked by a series of unfortunate events that ultimately lead to her downfall. Hardy's literary style in this novel is characterized by its rich descriptions of rural landscapes, complex characters, and social issues. Set in the Victorian era, this novel explores themes of class, gender roles, and morality, making it a significant work in the literary canon. The intricate plot and the emotional depth of the characters make 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' a compelling read that continues to resonate with readers today. Thomas Hardy, a renowned English novelist and poet, drew inspiration from his own experiences growing up in rural England to write this novel. His deep understanding of human nature and society is evident in his sensitive portrayal of Tess and the challenges she faces. Hardy's nuanced depiction of the injustices and hypocrisies of society adds depth and complexity to the narrative. I highly recommend 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' to readers interested in classic literature, social issues, and compelling storytelling. Thomas Hardy's masterpiece is a timeless work that offers valuable insights into Victorian society and the complexities of human relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Pure Woman "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" Faithfully Presented is a novel by Thomas Hardy. It initially appeared in a censored and serialised version, published by the British illustrated newspaper The Graphic in 1891 and in book form in 1892. The novel is set in impoverished rural England, Thomas Hardy's fictional Wessex, during the Long Depression of the 1870s. Tess is the oldest child of John and Joan Durbeyfield, uneducated peasants; however, John is given the impression by Parson Tringham that he may have noble blood, since "Durbeyfield" is a corruption of "D'Urberville", the surname of a noble Norman family, then extinct. The news immediately goes to John's head. That same day, Tess participates in the village May Dance, where she meets Angel Clare, youngest son of Reverend James Clare, who is on a walking tour with his two brothers. He stops to join the dance and partners several other girls. Angel notices Tess too late to dance with her, as he is already late for a promised meeting with his brothers. Tess feels slighted. Tess of the d'Urbervilles, novel by Thomas Hardy, first published serially in bowdlerized form in the Graphic (July—December 1891) and in its entirety in book form (three volumes) the same year. It was subtitled A Pure Woman Faithfully Presented because Hardy felt that its heroine was a virtuous victim of a rigid Victorian moral code. Now considered Hardy's masterwork, it departed from conventional Victorian fiction in its focus on the rural lower class and in its open treatment of sexuality and religion. SUMMARY: After her impoverished family learns of its noble lineage, naive Tess Durbeyfield is sent by her slothful father and ignorant mother to make an appeal to a nearby wealthy family who bear the ancestral name d'Urberville. Tess, attractive and innocent, is seduced by dissolute Alec d'Urberville and secretly bears a child, Sorrow, who dies in infancy. Later working as a dairymaid, she meets and marries Angel Clare, an idealistic gentleman who rejects Tess after learning of her past on their wedding night. Emotionally bereft and financially impoverished, Tess is trapped by necessity into giving in once again to d'Urberville, but she murders him when Angel returns.

But Alec d'Urberville is a rich wastrel who seduces her and makes her life miserable. When Tess meets Angel Clare, she is offered true love and happiness, but her past catches up with her and she faces an agonizing moral choice.Hardy's indictment of society's double standards, and his depiction of Tess as "a pure woman," caused controversy in his day and has held the imagination of readers ever since. Hardy thought it his finest novel, and Tess the most deeply felt character he ever created.

The news immediately goes to John's head.

He stops to join the dance, and partners several other girls. Angel notices Tess too late to dance with her, as he is already late for a promised meeting with his brothers. Tess feels slighted. Tess's father gets too drunk to drive to market that night, so Tess undertakes the journey herself. However, she falls asleep at the reins, and the family's only horse encounters a speeding wagon and is fatally wounded. The blood spreads over her white dress, a symbol of forthcoming events. Tess feels so guilty over the horse's death that she agrees, against her better judgement, to visit Mrs d'Urberville, a wealthy widow who lives in the nearby town of Trantridge, and "claim kin", unaware that in reality, Mrs d'Urberville's husband, Simon Stoke, purchased the baronial title and adopted the surname though unrelated to the real d'Urbervilles. Tess does not succeed in meeting Mrs. d'Urberville, but chances to meet her libertine son, Alec, who takes a fancy to Tess and secures her a position as poultry keeper on the estate. Tess dislikes Alec, but endures his persistent unwanted attention to earn enough to replace her family's horse. The threat that Alec presents to Tess's virtue is obscured for Tess by her inexperience and almost daily commonplace interactions with him. He calls her "coz" (cousin), indicating a male protector, but, late one night, walking home from town with some other Trantridge villagers, Tess inadvertently antagonises Car Darch, Alec's most recently discarded favourite, and finds herself in physical danger. When Alec rides up and offers to "rescue" her from the situation, she accepts. Instead of taking her home, he rides through the fog until they reach an ancient grove called "The Chase", where he informs her that he is lost and leaves on foot to get his bearings. Tess stays behind and falls asleep on a coat he lent her. Alec returns and rapes her. The rape is also alluded to in another chapter, with reference to the "sobbing [heard] in The Chase" during the season Tess was at Trantridge, and Alec is later referred to as "the seducer".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "TESS OF THE D'URBERVILLES (British Classics Series)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Tess Durbeyfield is the oldest child of John and Joan, uneducated peasants living in an impoverished rural village in Wessex, during the Long Depression of the 1870s. One day, her father is given the hint that they may have noble blood and that they are successors of a noble Norman family D'Urberville. Tess's fortune is changed after one accident and she decides to visit Mrs. D'Urberville, a rich widow who lives in the nearby town, and "claim kin". Though now considered a major nineteenth-century English novel and Hardy's masterpiece, Tess of the d'Urbervilles originally received mixed reviews because it challenged the sexual morals of late Victorian England. Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) was an English novelist and poet. A Victorian realist in the tradition of George Eliot, he was influenced both in his novels and in his poetry by Romanticism, especially William Wordsworth and Charles Dickens. Like Dickens, he was highly critical of much in Victorian society, though Hardy focused more on a declining rural society. While Hardy regarded himself primarily as a poet, initially he gained fame as the author of novels, including Far from the Madding Crowd, Tess of the d'Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure. Most of his fictional works were set in the semi-fictional region of Wessex. They explored tragic characters struggling against their passions and social circumstances.
